The moon belongs to everyone, so says the 1927 hit musical composition, “The Best Things In Life Are Free.” We agree! In January of 2023, a treasure trove of new cultural works published in 1927 became as free as the moon and the stars, and we at Internet Archive, Creative Commons and many other leaders from the open world wanted to throw a party to celebrate!
